A FENIAN ADVKNTXRI;.— The K. Y.
Times, of Sunday, published what it char-acterizes
as "a curious and romantic but
true narration" of the adventures of a
party of Fenians' who fitted up a vessel
and sailed in April last from New York
for Ireland, from which they returned a
few days since. There were 250 of these
bold but foolish adventurers, all picked
men, thoroughly armed, and well supplied
with warlike stores. They were all be-lievers
in the oft-repeated statements that
the people of Ireland were ripe for revo-lution,
and that if an organized body of
troops, capable of forming the nucleus of
an army, were to land on any part of the
Irish soil and raise the given flag, the en-tire
country would rush to their support.
They gut to the Irish coast in safety, touch-ed
at different points and landed an armed
force at the most promising locality. But
nobody gathered around them, or knew
anything of them or their project, or car-ed
anything at all about them. And so,
after a series of mishaps, misfortun, a and
daring attempts, in which a number of
them were captured, the bark Plato has re-turned
to New York, bearing a body of
men who have suffered hardships that they
are not willing to repeat, even for the
cause of Irnh independence.
GREAT BRITAIN AND THE UNUKD STATKS.
In the great debates winch have lately been
going on in the House of Lords as well as
in tl-e Commons on the Reform Bill, the
political condition and popular institutions
of the United States have been constant-ly

THE LEOISI.ATUKE WILL NOT MEET.—
The H'tlel'jh Sentinel says: "We are
glad to have it in our power to settle defi-nitely
the (jacstion which has been, of late,
so frequently nsked, Will the Legislature
meet ? The following extract from Gen.
Sickles' Special Orders No. 114, furnished
us by Gov. Worth, settles that matter.—
We quote from the official order, dated
August 1st, duly signed, dec.
"IV. The Session of the General As-sembly
of North Carolina, appointed to
be held at Raleigh on the third Monday
in August next, is hereby postponed until
further orders. The Commanding officer
of the Post of Raleigh will transmit, to
the Governor of North Carolina, a copy
of this order, with the request that the
same be communicated to the presiding
officers and members of the Senate and
House of Commons."
As a matter of news we append the
5th section of the same order :
"V. The Governor of North Carolina,
the Treasury, the Speaker of the House
of Common.-, the Chairman of the Senate
Committee on Finances, and the Chair-man
of the House Committee of Ways
and Means, are hereby constituted a Board
to consider and report upon the expedien-cy,
practicability and cost of providing a
suitable temporary place of confinement
for prisoners undergoing sentence for fel-ony.
In determining the location, the
Board will take into consideration the
probable erection hereafter of a Peniten-tiary
and the employment of the prison*
crs in mining, or other work in metals,
1.ruk-mnking, or manufactures, whereby
the Penitentiary may be self-supporting
and the convicts taught some useful art."

ITEMS OF STATS NEWS.
OPTRAGB IN WrucEB.—One day last
week, a party of men from Tennessee,
claiming to belong to Brownlow's militia,
made a raid into Wtlkes county and arres-ted
and carried off a young man by the
name of Wagoner. Wagoner is a native
of Johnson county, Tenn., and at the
commencement of the war joined the 1st
North Carolina Cavalry, and did not visit
his home during the struggle, and since
the war was afraid to return home, and
settled in Wilkes county in this State, and
recently married. The misoreants who
carried him oft* told him they were acting
under the authority ot Brownlow, and
that he had also offered $400 reward for
him. Wagoner was in the field at work,
and when he was arrested was refused per-mission
to go to the house for his coat.—
The captors placed a guard of two men,
one on each side, and then placed out a
rear guard, with instructions to fire off a
gun on the approach of any one that had
the appearance of pursuit, and the firing
of the gun was the signal to the guards
near Wagoner's person to kill him. When
the party was approaching Taylorsville
the rear guard stopped at a branch to
drink, and fell to the rear some 30 or 40
yards, Wagoner conceived this to be the
best and last chance to escape, he sudden-ly
struck one of his guards and knocked
him off a steep embankment, and imme-diately
struck the other and darted iuto
the woods, by this time the attention*/)!'
the whole party was drawn to him,, and
they tired a volley after biin, but fortunate-ly
his person was not touched, although
several balls passed through his clothing.
After laying out in the mountains for two
or three days and nights he got safely back
to Wilkes, where it is hoped he will be al-lowed
to remain unmolested.— Winston
Sentinel.
FERTILIZERS.—We have been told by
some of the farmers that the fertilizers they
bought in the Spring—guano for instar.ee,
did their crops no good, whilst others aro
gratified with the experiment. We mere-ly
mention the subject at this time, for the
purpose of suggesting that the fertilizers
used by some persons may havebeenadul-terated
inferior articles. Some method
should be adopted to guard against the in-troduction
of adulterated articles.— Char-lotte
Democrat.
We have heard the same complaints
from those who have used what they sup-pose
to be Peruvian Guano. The impres-sion
is, that either the Guano was adulter-ated
or defective, or that it was seriously
damaged by the severe rains.
Peruvian Guano should be purchased
from those venders who are well acquain-ted
with the article, and who are known
to be reliable. From what we have learn-ed
by observation, we judge that planters
had better become their own manipulators
of fertilizers. Ouc hundred pounds to the
acre of pure, genuine Peruvian Guano, as
the basis, which contains as much ammo-nia
as our lands really require, with 100
lbs per acre of Mexican Guano or the
Bone Manure, mixed well with the former,
would be a cheaper and more enduring
fertilizer than the Peruvian alone, or the
ordinary manipulated manures. Rotation
of crops, and seeding down in wheat and
clover to rest, would accomplish wonders
in the improvement ofour lands.—Raleigh
Se?itinel.

SWINDLERS ARRESTED.—Four men,
going by the names of John O'Brian, Da-vid
Brnnnon, Samuel Jones and J. Calvin,
hailing from Kentucky or Tennessee, wi"c
arrested in this city last week on the
charge of swindling. They have been go-ing
through the country gathering np old
feathers and promising to replace th,m
with new. Ir. this way, several eonntry
house-keepers have lost their beds. The
swindlers were compelled to pay damages
to the amount of about *-100, and tnriied "tra\ clfl have nd been unprofitable, and h.

In these times, while rascality is being
practiced in various ways-, it would be
well for people everywhere to bo on their

Democrat.
SWAMP LANDS.—The recent publication
by the Literary Board, exhibiting the char-ter
and advantages of the Swamp Lands
owned by the State, we are glad tool .serve,
has awakened considerable interest 'hi ough-out
the country. We have icon flattering,
notices of it in many of the leading pa-pers
of the North and North-West.—
Better than this, we learn that a German
Emigrant Association bare submitted a
proposition for the purchase of the eu'iiv
body,—further particulars of which we
shall soon be able to give the pv.blic. This
is encouraging. Wc know of nothing that
would help more, jirst now, in the devel-opment
of our resources and in general
recuperation, than the immigration to4 the
State of large numbers of industrious.
frugal Germans.

CORRECTION.—We are requested to

us with a bottle of his Peruvian
Bitters, a medicine highly recommended
as a tonic.
Air. C. L. Banner, a worthy citizen of
Fersythe, died at his residence on Monday
evening last. He died from injuries receiv-ed
by the running away of his horse a few
weeks ago.
PHOTOGRAPHY.—Fiona the fact that the
resident photographer docs not advertise
his business, like many others in the com-munity,
we had quite foigotten there was
an artist in the town. But the other day,
Hughes, Photographer, called us in his Gal-lery,
where we saw many fine specimens of
the Photographic art, and before we. left he
saeeeeded in making a very good looking
picture of our not over handsome face—
pronounced by those who have seen it as a
line photograph, so far as the work of the
artist is concerned. Mr. Hughes is well
prepared to make all the different styles of
pictures pertaining to his profession, and
those who may patronize his Gallery, will
be faithfully served.
NEW CHARTERS.—Gov. Worth has re-cently
granted, according to act of Assem-bly,
a charter to the Cabarrus Mining
Company, for the purpose of the mining
and manufacturing of ore. The capital
stock of the Company is not to exceed
$000,000. The Company has already, we
believe, purchased mining lands in Cabar-rus
County, and will go to work at once.
The corporators are : Thaddeus Stevens,
("old Thad !") E. B. French, Jno. F. Farns-woi-
th, Harmon C. JudJ and C. F. Peck,
Esquires.
Also, recently, a charter to the Blakes-ley
Mining Company of Mecklenburg, with
a capital stock not to exceed $300,030,
composed of Northern gentleman.
We are glad to sec these movements.--
They indicate, at least, some confidence in
the "future, and are evidence that the re-sources
of North Carolina are begining to
be appreciated abroad,—Raleigh Sentinel.
LARGE SALE OF LANDS.—R. W. Best,
Esq., Secretary of the State, left for New
York, on Monday last, to close, as Agent,
a bargHin for the sale of 50.000 acres of
State lands, and from 70 to 90,000 acres of
hind owned by Col. Bryson, and others,
p rhajis, ot Jackson, lying in the counties
of Jackson, Macon and Cherokee, to the
American Agricultural and Mineral Com-pany.
This Company was chartered by
the last Legislature, and its headquarters
are in New" York. Several Northern gen-tlemen,
as well as citizens of the State.
comprise the Company. We learn that
it is the purpose of the Company to put
upon these lands, in a short time, 20,000
sheep, for wool growing. Besides this,
several thousand laborers will be employ-ed
in mining, dec. We hope this, is but
the begnningof a large ingress of indus-trious,
enterprising people into the State.—
Raleigh Sentinel.
The Goldsboro Morning Star learns
from a farmer in Carteret, that, on going
into his corn field early a few mornings
since, he was greeted by five black bears,
helping themselves to the young coi u.—
Being alone, «ith uo gun, he concluded
that a quiet retreat was prudent.
RASCALITY.—A man calling himself
John R. Sherman (and representing him-self
as a son ot Gen. Sherman) has been
going through Union county professing
to be an agent of the Government to sell
land csi ip to the negro that held the scrip
should receive a tract of land. In some
instances he swindled the negroes out of
as much as *10 and *20 each. In certain
sections of this county the negroes have
been deceived in the same way. We have
heard of some negroes who have held this
land scrip for six months before making
any inquiries about its value. It would be
well for some one to put the colored peo-ple
on their guard against the operations
of a set of mean, low-life swindlers who
are going about the country making false
promises, and leading the negroes to be-lieve
that they will get land without buy-ing
it from the rightful owners.
NKW Mfsic.—We have received from
Prof. F. B. Mauri.-. ' All Right Polka,"
"Extreme Galop," '•Four in Hand Galop,"
and "Mocking Bird Waltz,"' all recent pub-lications,
and very popular. Prof. Mami <■
has a fine collection of music, musical iti-stituiielit.

GERUIT SMITH, JOHN BKOWN,ANP TUB
CHICAGO THIRL-XK.—Horace White, editor
of The Chicago Tribune, was absent when
that establishment compromised for the
libel suit brought by Gerrit Smith, but now
publishes a card, in which be .makes tl e
following statement:
"I am in possession cf information
which enables me to affirm that .Mr. Gerril
Smith was fully advised of John Brown's
purpose to make an armed invasion or
raid upon Virginia for a longtime prior to
such invasion or raid; that (lerrit Smith
assented to and co-operated In such inva-sion
or raid, with advice, money and coun-sel;
that interviews to'k place between
John Brown and Gerrit Smith nt tin- re-sidence
of the latter, in IVtrboro', New
York, in the summer of 1*859; .'it which
John Brown unfolded to (Jcrnt Smith his
plan, S'i far as it was then matured, in-forming
him particularly that Chambers
burg, PJ., had been fixed npon as the
place to which arms should be first sent;
that the plan contemplated a method at"
running oft"slaves, but a military occupa-tion
ol the country and a general in^urrec
tion of slaves, accompanied by vkdenee
and bloodshed, and that BerrH Smith knew
it, assented to it,and ftirnisb-d money to
carry it forward. I leave the pwbfie to
judge how far this state of facts cohn-id' s
with the statement that Gerrit Smith had
no previous knowledge or intimation Ol
John Brown's invasion of Harper's Ferry.
I leave the public toiudge also how much
honor he does to the memory of John
Brown under the circumstances."
Tom Hood said there is no man in Ger-many
more inhumanly abased than tin-
Jew. He is wronged, pelted and hooted
at—he is robbed, taxed and spit upon ; and
all for what ? Because he believes in the
Old Testament and won't eat pork and
